Hope you all enjoying a wonderful fall season. It seems once Halloween ended and the calendar turned to November first, my inbox was filled with so many emails about how close the holidays really are. With Thanksgiving just a few short weeks away, I started to reflect about all the things I am thankful for. Shabby Lane Shops is hosting a 'Thankful for You' sale. What a great way to thank all the wonderful people who visit the site. Here is how it will work at InspiredByJane.com. Each day, starting today, November 5, I will post a new item on the 'Thankful for You' page at a great savings. Whether the item sells or not, a new item will be posted the next day, so check back often.

I hope you all weathered the storm and are safe. Here in Connecticut, we had so many trees and wires down that they had to postpone opening the schools until after labor day. Many people in my town are still without power.

Today is the first day I have been able to have an internet connection. Of course, I had to leave the state! If anyone has not received an order or response to an inquiry, please email me directly at

I think the saying is 'When life hands you lemons, make lemonade', and that is just what I did! I have been busy in my studio, which has a great set of windows to let in lots of light, crafting many new creations for the site. Hopefully, items will be able to be posted this week for your viewing. I will be sending a newsletter with a coupon code, so if you have not signed up for the mailing list, now is the time. Just visit
